Swanson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The shortstop set a new career high in homers with 18 by taking Jeurys Familia deep in the eighth inning. Swanson has hit safely in five straight games and eight of nine, slashing .333/.385/.611 over that nine-game stretch, but his .242/.297/.455 line on the season remains a slight disappointment.

Swanson went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a walk, a run and an RBI in Saturday's 15-3 win over the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

After going hitless over a three-start stretch from July 18 to 21, Swanson has bounced back with a big series in Philadelphia.

He'll start at shortstop and bat fifth Sunday in the series finale.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson ignited Atlanta's offense by smacking a grand slam in the third inning. It was his 17th home run of the season and third in his last seven starts. Despite the power surge, Swanson is just 3-for-26 since the All-Star break, though it is encouraging that he has only struck out five times in that span. Overall, Swanson is hitting .232/.290/.445 with 42 runs scored and 46 RBI across 391 plate appearances on the campaign.

Swanson went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 7-6 loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Swanson mashed a solo shot to left to give Atlanta a 3-2 lead in the fourth. It was his 16th homer of the year and the third over his last two games. The 27-year-old is slashing .243/.301/.458 with 38 extra-base hits, 41 RBI, 41 runs scored, six steals and a 26:103 BB:K over 367 at-bats. He's on pace for career highs in many hitting categories but must cut down on his strikeouts, as he's currently striking out 28.1 percent of the time.

Swanson went 2-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs and a walk in Sunday's 7-3 loss to Miami.

EDGE Analysis

The shortstop was pretty much the lone bright spot for Atlanta in its first game without Ronald Acuna (knee). Swanson went deep off Miami starter Pablo Lopez in the sixth inning and added a second long ball off reliever Anthony Bender in the ninth. Swanson closed the first half of the season hot with 13 hits, including two homers and five doubles, in his last seven contests. He's slashing .243/.302/.453 with 15 homers, 40 rBI, 40 runs scored and six stolen bases through 362 plate appearances.

Swanson went 3-for-5 with a double, a walk, an RBI, a stolen base and two runs in Wednesday's 14-3 win over the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

It was a huge afternoon for Swanson, who entered Wednesday hitting .167 with one RBI in his previous eight games. The 27-year-old has been plagued by the strikeout, fanning in 30.9 percent of his 2021 at-bats and hitting just .233. That being said, it would likely take a further drop-off in production, and an extreme one at that, for Swanson to lose his grip on the starting shortstop job.

Swanson went 2-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and a stolen base in Friday's 3-2 win over the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

The shortstop provided Atlanta's second run by taking Vladimir Gutierrez deep in the sixth inning. Swanson is only hitting .216 (19-for-88) in June but he's otherwise been productive, adding five homers, two steals, 11 runs and 13 RBI to his ledger through 24 games.

Swanson went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

His third-inning blast off Yennsy Diaz came after Marcus Stroman (hip) made an early exit for the Mets, and it ended up providing the only offense in the game. Swanson continues to struggle with consistent contact as he's batting .227 (17-for-75) in June, but he's still produced a solid 12 homers, 31 runs and 33 RBI through 72 games on the season.

Swanson went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run, a triple and an additional run scored in a loss to the Red Sox on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

With Atlanta trailing by three runs in the fifth inning, Swanson came through with a three-run blast to left field to temporarily tie the score. The long ball, his first since June 3, was his 11th of the season and pushed his RBI total to 30. He is slashing .237/.286/.448 on the campaign.

Swanson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

For the first time all season, Swanson will head to the bench in what likely amounts to a pre-planned rest day. Ehire Adrianza will pick up a start at shortstop in place of Swanson, who is slashing .214/.267/.405 through Atlanta's first 11 games of June.
